Truly a very valuable and interesting podcast, with stories that are very relatable for heart patients and can also offer comfort.
I stumbled across this podcast when I was looking for survivor support groups online, and I am so glad I did! It’s tremendously helpful and comforting. It’s great hearing other survivor stories. Friends and family can be excellent supports, but nobody truly understands unless they’ve been through it.
Love this show as a fellow cardiac arrest survivor. The mix of medical experts and raw, honest survivor stories is refreshing. Glad I found this project started by an amazing heart warrior!
Sudden cardiac arrest is life changing and unexpected. As a survivor, this podcast has answered many questions, provided hope through survivor stories, and it a great opportunity to understand the road to recovery.
Highly recommend for anyone who’s had a cardiac arrest and also their family/friends. So many great people who’ve told their journey on the podcast as well as health professionals. So good to know you’re not alone, learn more and help to move forward.
